The right hand tank took to leaking. Is there any repair to those plastic tanks? ------------- 2-8070FWA PS/8050PS/7080/7045PS/200/D15-II/2-WD45/WD/3-WC/UC/C |

There is, we repaired a leak on an 8070, got the kit from agco, but NAPA or O'Reily might have one as well. |

I got some stuff from JB Weld. I put it on and let it sit overnight. I put fuel in it this morning and so far it appears to be holding. ------------- 2-8070FWA PS/8050PS/7080/7045PS/200/D15-II/2-WD45/WD/3-WC/UC/C |

| I repaired a gas tank on an '02 1500 pickup with a borrowed soldering iron with a wide, flat blade. I emptied the tank first of course, used the hot iron to heat the plastic and a deadblow hammer to move it back into place. Then used the hot blade to smooth it over. It's held for over 2 years now. |

I have a 2003 Ram with plastic tank. Huffer put a hole in it with an awl, took a bit in a cup, left the rest to drain on the ground. I found a big metal screw and washer that fit snug. Cleaned and roughed the area real well. Gooped them with JBWeld and screwed them in snug, then mucked completely over the whole area. Hasn’t shown a damp spot yet 2 years going. ------------- AC7060Pd 1975 |
